by Gabrielle Roy ‧ RELEASE DATE: Oct. 2, 1957
A series of stories about a large French-Canadian family that lives on Rue Deschambault near Winnipeg is told by the youngest of the family, Christine. They deal most often with her father and mother and with her own growing up. Some capture only an atmosphere or an emotion or an odd moment; others are full fledged, well wrought tales of real people growing and changing. Humor and sensitivity mark a touching and appealing book, written with great skill.
